This is the first job in the IDLE section in the showq output. And the
approximate start time of that job can be seen with:
showstart <jobid>
Remember this start time is also a "best guess" in relation to the job mix,
and setup parameters below.
Checkjob <jobid> will show you a bit more info as well.
